Dunno if this has been recently brought up, but I just picked up a copy of
Circuit Cellar magazine (my subscription expired years ago.)  I was
moderately surprised to see the number of "little tiny boards" advertised
in it that "Run Linux", which means they should be able to run FreeBSD as
well...  This mag may be helpful to people who are starting to play with
Pico (like me) -- it does seem to be gearing towards embedded '386 uses,
plus the usual 8051, etc. designs.  I've been working with 8051s for
several years, but they do have their limitations.... :)
